Is the "Kanye West will definitely siphon off lots of black votes" talking point racist?

More importantly, why are we giving this FAR more attention than it deserves?

But remember, it's the anti-Kanye threads that are the most annoying

Yes, but black voters are not my concern with Kanye siphoning votes. It's edgy white 18-24 year olds.

You act as if edgy white young Millennials are gonna vote for Biden.

Also, gotta love how it's changed from "Kanye will take a lot of the black vote" to "Kanye will take a lot of the white youth vote (Who also might be fat & smelly)". Just trading one paintbrush for another

Lean Yes.

But it was absolutely a ridiculously outrageous take, as much as the "Kanye West will definitely siphon off lots of youth votes from Biden in swing states and cost him the election" take.

Then again, I have a feeling most folks' most recent memory here of Kanye is being the guy that publicly called Dubya racist after Hurricane Katrina when not even most millennials have a favorable view of Kanye (Let alone Zoomers)
